How would I find my parameters for a game that I plan to ID abuse when I haven't even started the game yet?

For BW2? Start a file and save at least once, then you can use the Unova Link method (see the OP) to find your parameters very quickly and easily. You can't find your parameters without starting the game at all.

Hold on, does the breeding bug basically mean that it is indeed impossible to do some RNG Breeding in the Japanese and International releases of BW2 as of now? Dangit, I skipped BW since I thought I can do all the RNGing here :/

I'm trying to create a profile for Black 2, and I'm doing everything the exact same to find my parameters as I did in White, but when I enter all the shit I don't get a seed.
Have sweet scent, caught the first poke without moving, checked IVs with pokecheck. Nothing comes up. Don't know why it's not working, but it isn't. Bit upsetting. So I'm not quite sure what to do to check my parameters now.

One other thing, this time about the backing up Pokemon Dream Radar before RNGing, though not technically about the RNGing itself:

I know that the guide says to back up the entire SD card for each time, but my SD card's almost full so that's bound to take up too much space. Looking through the directory, I stumbled upon this folder:

G:\Nintendo 3DS\(a bunch of numbers and letters that might not be something I should post)\(another bunch of numbers & letters)\title\00040000\000ae100

Based on the creation date (mostly the fact that it's the only folder created on the 7th, the same day I downloaded only it), I'm thinking that this is where PDR is stored. Does anyone know if I'm right? And if I am, would I be able to just backup/restore this folder, instead of the entire SD card? There isn't some hidden file in another directory that'd keep this from working, is there?

There's also a 512KB .sav file in a sub-directory under that one, so if I could get away with only copying that then that'd be even better.

Now, maybe I'm not reading it correctly, but for RNGing Dream Radar Pokemon, can I just Export the Research Data to B2W2 on 3DS and then move to DS Lite for the actual RNGing? I'm wondering, since if I can, I won't have to wait until the RNG Reporter can do 3DS stuff.

I don't know, as I have an SD card that I use just for Dream Radar, so the size of the backups is not an issue. What don't you take a full backup of your SD card, copy that somewhere safe so you don't mess up your data and can restore it back to its original state, and then try the different things you suggested and see if it works? It would be useful for everyone here to know.

Yes, you can RNG on whatever device you like after you send the Pokemon from the Dream Radar. But it's not going to let you do it any faster because...

I was kind of hoping that one of the researchers here had already tried...but if not, then I guess I'll do just that.

EDIT: Yeah, that's where it's stored, alright. Copying only that folder over works just fine...

2: ...as does only copying the save. Therians are back to be resent and everything.

For some reason my "profile" data for RNG Reporter 9.96 Alpha is saved in the wrong place, but I can't seem to find it. Can someone tell me what the file/folder name for the Profile is called so I can find it? (I'm using Windows Vista)

Should be profiles.xml in the same folder as the main program. Note that older versions of the profiles file are not compatible with 9.96 beta, so that might be causing some confusion.

Yes, though you can also use Unova Link to find your parameters more quickly. See the OP for details on how to do this in PPRNG (the process should be similar when RNG Reporter is updated to support this method).
